Warming the Body by the Breath.

Some people may not know that when exposed to severe cold feeling of warmth is really created by repeatedly filling the lungs to their utmost in this manner: Throw the shoulders well back and hold the head we'll up. Intlate the lungs slowly, the air entering en- tirely through tn, nose. When the lungs are completely filled, hold the breath for ten seconds or longer, and then expire it quickly through the mouth. After repeating this exercise while one is "chilly," feeling of warmth will be felt over the entire body, and even to the feet and hands. It is important for all to practice this cxer- else many times each day, and cspe- cially when in the open air. If the habit ever becomes universal, then consump- tion and many other diseases will rarely, if ever, be heard of. Not only while practicing the breathing exer- else" must the clothing be loose over the chest, but beginners will do we'll to remember, in having their clothing fit ted, to allow for the permanent expan- sion of the chest of one, two and even three inches, which will eventually fol. low.-[ Boston Herald.

Story Ofa Hospital Quilt.

An old Boston lawyer tells the fol- lowing story: "One of my neighbors is an architect, tall, dark, handsome, and little more than middle-aged. His wife is charming woman, fair and beautiful. The husband was a private in Massachusetts regiment during the rebellion. He was desperately wounded in an engagement, and for several months afterwards was an inmate of hospital. Upon the cot which he occupied was quilt with the names of thir- teen girls embroidered on the edge together with that of the North ern city from which it had been sent. When the patient grew we'll enough he wrote letter to each of the thirteen misses, thanking them for the quilt and telling them the story cf his illness. He received kind replies from all of them. One of those letters in- terested him particularly, and he kept up correspondence with the writer for some months. On his return to the North he called upon her, and before another year passed they were married. Although twenty years have gone by since their wedding, they are still the handsomest couple I lever saw.-- Chicago Tedpc

Pickles and Sauces.

"The use of foreign pickles and sauces in this country is very small now. American products have taken their place."
 This was tho reply of Q wholesale New York grocer to question from Mail and Express reporter. The reporter then asked:
 "Has the fame of the foreign goods died out2"
 "Not exactly; but the American pickles ara fully equal to tn em, and, what is of more importance to consum- CTS, they are much cheaper. You will remember that at one time no pickle was thought worth eating unless it bore the stamp of certain firm in London. The same may be said of sauces. But this is all changed. No one thinks of asking for the London concerns pickles now in any ordinary grocery store, and if anyone should it would be almost inn possible to get them. The American bottle pickles are from thirtY-three to fifty per cent cheaper to the jobbiug trade, and therefore can be sold at a lower price to the consumer"
 "Where are the pickles prepared3"
 "They are grown and pickled in this State. At Montrose, N. Y., there is a pickle factory nearly Jock in extent. They are put up in quantities to suit both family and hotel use." "What about the sauces9"
 "The old English sauces arc no longer on the price lists of large grocery stores. as better kind can be supplied at from 40 to 50 per cent. cheaper. That tht latter gives satisfaction is shown by the fact that it has superseded the foreigr among the wholesale trade and jobbcrs besides which the old prejudiccs against anything American has died out. If the article be equally good, and can be had cheaper, it will command the trade"

Dairy Schools,

Jairy schools appear to have become quite popular in Europe. They have not been tried Tn this country, and may not succeed as well here. But, as we recently stated, Lawson Valentine has started dairy,schoor on the Houghton farm. It Is Announced that a number of students have entered the school, and quite strong hopes are entertained of its practical success. We shall watch with interest for tho results. There is need enough for proper instruction in dairy ing among the farmers generally. As a rule, the smaller farmers, who carry surplus butter to the village stores, are tho most in need of infor- nation how to turn out better goods. They are probably also the most destitute of proper facilities for successful butter making. But it re- mains to be seen how far this class can be reached through the establishment of dairy schools. They are the ones most benefited by the creamery, and otho, forms of associated dalrying. If their sons and daughters can be induced te take instructions in dairy schools ol creameries, it will not only improve th' quality of farm butter, but add consid erably to the farmers incomes. There is no reason, but ignorance, why poo butter should be made. It is just u easy, and costs no more to make gooe buttsr.--[Prairie Farmer,

DissipateA

A certain schoolgirl used always to be besetting her friends with the ques- tion, 'If say like chocolate, and you say you do, do we mean the same thinga Does any one substance taste the same to different peoplea" Evidently it was a question which could never bc answered. A less difficult one is that as to the meaning which words assume in different minds.
 Threc or four Japanese students were in the habit of dining at certain resi- dence in Boston. One of the party was young man of high rank and great dignity, and when he was missing from the table one day the host asked, with some solicitude, the cause of bis absence.
 "Oh, he cannot come," said tho spokesman of the party, shaking his head sadly; Che very dissipated--he very dissipated."
 The host thought it best not to make any further inquiry at the time, but after the meal he ventured to ask the young man in privats, "You say MT. Nim Shi is not well2" "No, he not well-he very dissipa- ted"

Fish.Lines From Butterflies.

The boys in China, as we'll as the boys in America, have their favorite sports and pastimes. The fishing lines used in this country are of twine, but in China they are the product of moth. Adele M. Field, of swatow, China, writes to the Swiss Cross:
 In some of the Chinese shops there are sold, for about one cent each, little coils of translucent, yellowish thread, from five to ten feet long. When old and dry they are rather brittle, but when they have been soaked for ten minutes in warm water in which rico has been boiled they tougher and will bear the strain of four or fve-pouad weight. They are used as fishing lines, md are reckoncd tho best for creek or coast. They are unwittingly supplied to the fishermen by butterfly.
 The large and beautiful Atlas moth, with pink stripes and six glowing cres- cents on its brown wings, fits about and lays its eggs on the tallow trees. The eggs hatch in the sunshine, the tioy caterpillars come out and feed on the fresh leaves, and grow to be four inches long and an inch thick. They are of a bright pale green color, with horny black head and jaws, and with eight pairs of legs. Tho six legs on the thorax are jointed, and each ends in a claw, while the other five pairs of legs are telescopical and end in discs sur. rounded by minute hooks. The cater pillars crawl, back downward, along the leaf stems, and dcvour leaf in a twinkling. When they arc fullgrown and ready to spin the cocoons in which they would wrap themselves and change into butterflies, the Chinese boys bounce upon them, sllt them across the back and draw out the two spinning glands which lie looped along each side of the body cavity close under the skin. These glands, when extended, are about three feet long and one-tenth of an inch thick, dwindling to two fine threads that unite near an orifice under the mouth, where the silk is spun out. They are full of the clear viscid substance that would be spun into the cocoon.
 After being drawn out whole, through the slit in the back, the glands arc dropped into vinegar to remove theil outer coating and arc then stretched to double or treble their usual length. When dry they form the fish lines sold in the shops.

Nightmare Visits an Entire Regiment.

Nightmare Visits an Entire Regiment.
 A French physician has recorded a very extraordinary case in which night mare attacked an entire regiment of sol diers. Doctor Laurent, the physician in question, said he was surgeon of the first battalion cf the Latour d'Auvergno Regiment when it was garrisoned at Palmi, in Calabria. At midnight in the month of June, the order to march with all possible speed to Tropea, forty miles away, was given. At seven o'clock ou the following evening Tropea was reached, scarcely single halt having been made by the way. The men ar rived in pitiful state of exhaustion and fatigue, in consequence mainly of the intense heat, but they found their rations cooked, their quarters prepared, and, after hearty meal, retired for the night in an abandoned monastery, a building much too small for them. They had to sleep upon heaps of straw, some Ill Ou0 TOUl, SoIle III OGlcIS. JuSt OClOIo occupying their unwholesome quarters some of the soldiers heard that the monastery was haunted by demon dog, and spread the story from one to an other, some of them uncomfortably, most of them merrily. There seemed little fear of their sleep being disturbed after such days work as they had done. But at midnight the deep si- lence was suddenly broken by loud, wild cries of terror. The pale soldiers rushed unanimously from their chambers in every direction, and one and all at once told the same tale of superstitious terror. One and all had been visited by the phantom dog. The monastery was abandoned, and the weary soldiers, veterans in war and famous for their bravery, wandered about the town, or slept in sheds and out-houses, rather than again face the terrors of what was undoubtedly bad attack of nightmare conseque nt upon sleep following an un. | digested meal taken while in a condition of great fatigue.-[ Argonaut.

Tho First Secretary of Congress.

John Adams records in his diary, on tho day after his arrival in Philadelphia as delegate to tho first Continental Congress-: "Called at Mr. Miff1in's, a grand, spacious and elegant house. There we had much conversation with Mr. Charles Thomson, who is the Sam Adams of Philadclphia, the life of the cause of liberty"
 Six days later, the delegates marched to Carpenters Hall, inspected it, agreed that it would serve the purpose, aud helped themselves to seats. Peyton Randolph, of Virginia, was unanimously elected president, and Charles Thomson secretary.
 Thomson was not present, for he was not delegate; and the doorkeeper was sent to find him and to say that the Con- gress desired his immediate attendance. After the Congress had got through tho routine of organization, the doorkeeper returned, cscorting MT. Thomson, who, walking up the aisle, stopped in front of the president and said, with bow {: ."Mr. President Iawait your pleasure. |"
 Congress desires the favor of you, sir, to take their minutes" replied Pres ident Randolph.
 With bow, MT. Thomson signifed his acquiescence, and without word took his seat at his desk, and began to record the proceedings of that famous, | practical and sober-minded assemblage of lawyers, politicians and men of bus | mess.
 This modest and quiet beginning was an earnest of the valuable services which, for fifteen years, Mr. Thomas rendered to the Congress of the Confederation. He was by birth au Irishman, but had left his native land when only eleven years of age. By education he became a scholar and made translation of that Greek Version of the Old Testament which is known as the Septuagint, which was published in four volumes in 1908. :. Youths Companion.

Comrades

 One steei have of common clay, And ono no less than regal; By day jog on old Saddlebags, By night fly upon Eagle: To store, to market, to field, to mill, One plods with patient batter, Nor hears along the far-off heights The hoofs of his comrade chatter. To field, to market, to mill he goes, Nor sees his comrade gleaming Where he flies along the purple hills, Nor the flame from his bridle streaming; Sees not his track, nor the sparks of fire So terribly flashing from it, As they flashed from the track of Alborak When he bravely carried Mahomet. One steed, in few short years, will rest Under the grasses yonder; The other will come there centuries hence To finger and dream and ponder; And yet both steeds are mine today The immortal and the mortal; One beats alone the clods of earth, One stamps at heavens portal.
